WHSmith Presents: Tess Gerritsen on Playing With Fire (Exclusive Reading + Interview) 

Best-known for her Rizzoli and Isles series, Tess Gerritsen’s standalone crime thriller - Playing with Fire - takes us in a fascinating new direction. After discovering an old piece of music in an antique shop in Rome, violinist Julia plays the piece at home, only to find her angelic 3 year old girl Lily turns violent every time it’s played. Unable to convince anyone of her daughter’s reaction, Julia travels to Venice to uncover the dangerous origins of the music.
At the Theakston’s Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival 2016 we took the chance to discuss Playing with Fire with Tess Gerritsen. In this video Tess tells us about researching World War Two Italy, getting into the mindset of a mother who is scared of her child, and composing the music for Incendio. Watch the full video for the exclusive interview and a reading from the book by Tess Gerritsen.
